Description

I swear I'm still working on art and I swear I'm still working on commissions (sometimes). . . I've been decently busy with work and school.

Anyway, my coworker has an intuos4 tablet that she never uses so she offered to sell it to me. I've used an intuos2 during my entire digital art life. I've had it for 7 years and I've never used anything else, so I wasn't sure. I have a 6x8 intuos2 mapped to a 3600 x 1080 resolution. The only problem was that this tablet was even smaller. . . it's the smallest intuos4 there is.

So my coworker let me take it home and test drive it tonight. So I drew a thing for my wonderful Ryoseth-CP! This is his character, Ryo. . .

Disasterpeace is the name of a composer whose music (from FEZ) I particularly enjoy. I thought the name fit this well because about 2/3 of the way through this picture, my computer decided to restart without my permission in order to install updates. Even though Ryoseth-CP tells me to all the time, I never save my work. In other words, this file didn't exist on my computer or in Photoshop any longer. . .

Luckily, I had been sending screenshots over MSN to Venomeye and there was a reasonably recent one. . but it had some terrible artifacting and it was tiny. . .

Holy crap, I should have had you do some art for my book before I published it. This is fantastic! I love the shape of his face. Very tiger-esque and the colors add a brilliantly exotic, alien air to it.

It's alright, I've done internet things on a whim too sometimes and felt lame afterward. To be honest, no one will remember in a few weeks and you'll have learned a lesson about socialization. Win for you all around, really.

*gasp*The lightning, the details, they are just amazing! It's so... alive! I can really look at this for ages, and be mesmerized by hairs, the shading, the lightning, the anatomy... *drool*He has a bit of a lion-ish thing to his face, I like it!

That is one awesome picture. Love it! I love how you shaded the creature and also the soft blue you used to color most of it. It adds the perfect amount of magic and beauty for a fantasy creature like this. This picture is defiantly going into my favorites.

I must say. This is an awesome picture, so awesome that I have actually recreated it. It's A very nice picture. I almost want to post it but I'm worried of copyright stuff. I'd thought I tell you and ask if its ok to post... And stuff
